Only only ever really been to a handful of different shows. All of them only in the US as well. I'd love to make it to events like Salute, or Spiel Essen. Both seem like awesome shows, full of some cool, new things. Speaking of Essen and new things. Ares Games will be in attendance and they'll have some games that will be available for the first time at the show. So hopefully you've got your tickets to the show, or know someone that can ninja-shop for you.

Those new releases include Last Friday, their new survival horror game as well as their latest wave of Sails of Glory ships. That's not to say those will be the only things available. The recently-released Behind the Throne will be there. As will Warriors of Middle-Earth, the second expansion for the War of the Ring board game.

Be sure to stop by their booth and try out several of their other recent games like Age of Conan, Odyssey, and Quickpick.

Ares Games will be in Indy in a week for Gen Con. Hopefully, you will be, too (I will be). If you're a fan of their games, you'll want to stop by their booth. Heck, even if you're not a fan of their c

Ares Games will be in Indy in a week for Gen Con. Hopefully, you will be, too (I will be). If you're a fan of their games, you'll want to stop by their booth. Heck, even if you're not a fan of their current games (no game is going to please every gamer), you'll want to stop by, since they have several new games they'll be releasing at the show.

So, what are these new releases? Well, they've got Last Friday, their survival horror game. Then there's Behind the Throne, a card game of deception and backstabbing. Then there's the Warriors of Middle-earth expansion for War of the Ring (I guess that's not entirely a "new game" but still...).

On the historical side of things, you'll also be able to pick up new WWI packs for Wings of Glory, including the Phönix D.I, Nieuport 11, Sopwith 1½ Strutter / Comic and Albatros C.III. There'll also be a couple game mats available to pretty-up your tabletop.
